I was going to find clerks, you know, the one there, I was finding the shop. This man came a gentleman came on the phone. He's like, excuse me, sorry, I saw you before.

And if you're lucky enough to still have your dad, enjoy your day at the weekend. We're going to enjoy our day. And before we start, we have a little message from someone who's got the top five things about you on Father's Day.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Hi, Papa, happy Father's Day. We love you. Mia and Tiago. Not Mommy. number one you're raising dad number two you're sleeper
Starting point is 00:05:39 number three you do smell a drunk very smelling very very number four you teach us number five you're helpful
Starting point is 00:05:55 and that's it and you know Tiago think everything I think because he's my brother and Lord his dad but also because you're super and also because he agrees with everything that I say so bye
Starting point is 00:06:09 that was that's not fair you should add the end no no we're doing that the other morning I was like quick while he's asleep we need to do this and she was doing a list but when she said you're super
Starting point is 00:06:22 you teach us you do smelly farts although she said trumps you're helpful oh bless her but then I like it at the end when she goes but that's it So yeah, happy Father's Day to all the dads out there on Sunday. I hope you all get spoiled.
Starting point is 00:06:40 You just come back from NYC. Yes. And you made a meme. You made it onto an actual... It's not a meme. Well, an influencers page. You were influenced. Yeah, but it's not a meme.
Starting point is 00:06:50 It's like someone who does... And you know what it's funny? When I am on Instagram, probably half of my fee is those videos. It's those ones about like, oh, I like your outfit, no? Where is you from? Something like that. do you look for living or the other guy who does, excuse me, how much do you pay for rent in New York? And they go like, oh, I don't rent, I own.
Starting point is 00:07:11 And then they go, oh, can I see, you know, sometimes like a setup. Can I see your house? And they show you the house in New York and stuff. So, basically, I was walking through West Village. It's called Blicker Street. And it's like a famous street. It takes you around where that street. Of that street is where friends were recalled.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Yeah. So anyway, I was with Noah Olsen and his wife, and we were for a coffin. It's when I went to buy the hat that you were in now from that shop that I saw. Very cute. Anyway, went to the shop and go one. And we were just walking, having a chart, as you can see in the beginning of the video. And this guy said that. And we were like, well?
Starting point is 00:07:49 And at some point, we didn't know if he was of us both, you know? Because probably no, I was thinking, oh, it's for you. And I was thinking, oh, it's for you. He said, excuse me, sir. I like your outfit. Where are you from? Yeah. So then they asked me, they started to ask.
Starting point is 00:08:00 And at some point, I was thinking, this is a joke. So I was answering them, but my facial expressions to him was like, are you taking the peace? Yeah. And then when we asked for his Instagram and we look at it like, oh no. He's a proper million followers plus Instagram. And me and no, I'm like, we should have to do it again. Yeah. But we just left.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Yeah, so it was quite random. So you got randomly stopped and asked about you. The thing that I don't understand, though, is that you dress cool, granted. But you only had shorts and T-shirt on. Yeah, I wasn't cool. You know what? You weren't in a cool outfit. It's not the outfit.
Starting point is 00:08:30 This is who you wear it. how you wear it yeah oh okay whatever I wear it's still looking cool well give a take but yeah I thought the same thing
Starting point is 00:08:37 I was thinking that's why I thought you're taking the piece because I was wearing just a bit of running shorts yeah that's what I mean but you made it onto his page so it was quite good
Starting point is 00:08:46 and he was in New York for a high rocks and he was so so excited about this high rocks he'd built up for it he'd done the training he was gonna be in a partnership in the high rocks with Noah Olson
Starting point is 00:08:56 so if you're into your crossfit you'll know Noah is a legend in the crossfit game He's incredible. You've been lucky enough, you've known him for a while, aren't you? Yes, but to get to race with him. You were going to race with him on your team.
Starting point is 00:09:08 And the day, the hour of, not even the day of, the hour of his event, he sent me a video, torrential rain and thunderstorms in New York. So they cancelled from like 630. So he was cancelled. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:20 So basically an hour before our wave stars, Alec, who also was rising with us, he went earlier because he has some friends. And he called us like, guys, I think the race is cancelled. so we're like, no, it's not possible. So we were all, actually, we were all like warming up, doing the stretches and everything,
Starting point is 00:09:36 and he could cancel, which for my food, it was a bad foot. It was good. I said that. I said sometimes you have to trust the detour with things, and he's got a potential stress fracture on his foot. So maybe shouldn't have been doing it anywhere. The universe stepped in and out of year.
Starting point is 00:09:52 That's what I think. Yeah. But it was upset. Also, like, I was like, no upset, but, like, you know, like, oh, because you have that opportunity, maybe just once, happen again. I was upset because I was like he's been away for six days for naf all.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Not six days. Five and a half. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Sunday? Sunday. Five. Five. Five point five. You came back Monday morning. He flew Sunday. Came back Monday. Well, I was this close to change my flight to come back later. Absolutely not. Because I was going to race on Sunday. This is off the back of a seven week tour. Come home and then go to New York and then come home and then go back to New York. Have in mind, this was for work. Yeah. I was working with playability. So part of the job it was to race Yeah but you did get to You know what was the most upsetting thing
Starting point is 00:10:33 It was the Scott the founder of Pl liability Yeah He like pay everything That's what I mean the money lost We were like nine people there But at least we got to film content And all the shoots for the social media And for the website and everything
Starting point is 00:10:47 But it was just he was like Pay everything flight and everything And we couldn't even And he's a sponsor of the Pliariariati is one of the sponsors of Hirox So we couldn't even go into like a different day because he was all sold out. So he was quite upsetting, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:01 But that's cool because we, he's been in the NYC. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, changing subjects from New York and my lovely weekend away, long weekend away. Yeah. Someone sent messages about your body language. Oh, yeah. I keep getting this. So, as you can see, we're on a couch which she's facing forwards.
Starting point is 00:11:21 The fact we even have to explain this is hilarious. So we turn in to face each other. For those who are aware, I've got quite. big shoulders. I've got shoulders like boulders. It's really comfort to me for me to sit like this. You have big teeth also so why it's comfortable to be here? Big shoulders. So I like sitting with my arms
Starting point is 00:11:37 crossed. They do it in meetings at work. It's just that's very bad. But apparently it's because I don't like you and my body language to you is off. Awful and off. No. That means it is through the body language that means that not you don't like the other person that's that you're kind of like not open
Starting point is 00:11:54 to like be receptive. But in reality, it's because I'm on a couch that I'm having to twist and face you and it's comfortable. Yeah, but I sit like that. If I sit like that, does that mean I'm more receptive? Probably you get like you look very manly anyway if you sit like that. Exactly. So to be honest, no matter what you do, Gemma, you're not going to win.
Starting point is 00:12:11 Not what I do, I'm going to get shite. How do you say it's an unwin, no, battle? It's a battle you'll never win. Yes, like a... No matter what you do? No, but I keep saying, sort your body language out. Your body language is awful. You can tell you don't appreciate him, your body language.
Starting point is 00:12:27 How am I supposed to sit? Should I sit like this? No. Frigg me. Can't even relax on my own podcast couch without being judged. You listen and don't judge, Mother Fers. Actually, like this, you look good, yeah. Yeah, but I'm not comfortable, and I'm not going to get back at you.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Do you think I'm comfortable like this? I think we should ask the team to change the chairs. We need the chairs that I said to you. Facing each other like therapy? Yes, the curvy ones with the back leg. Then we can sit with our feet up. Yeah. We have one million listeners.
Starting point is 00:12:57 We can afford to. them chest, you know. Well, I'll try and address my... Actually, no, I'm not going to address my body language. I'm going to sit with my arms across now because it's comfortable. No, that doesn't look nice either. You don't look nice like that. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:13:08 It's a podcast. I'm relaxed. I'm chilled. If you want me to be myself... There you go. You spread it. Spread that sack. Should we move on to the listener messages?
Starting point is 00:13:20 I know. I wanted to mention another thing before we move to the listener. The hedgehog in your coat. Is that what you're going to give me grief for? No, actually, no. No, no, that's the dilemmas. Don't rush, you know. Sometimes you need to take it slow.
Starting point is 00:13:31 What do you want to mention? Sorry, now that we are having a run to some of the listeners, yeah? Sorry, not all of you, some of them. So, Gemma's wearing the lovely hat. Without, not enough to, because she doesn't bother about it. I saw it, I thought, oh, she would love this hat. Yeah. And I said to her, would you like that hat?
Starting point is 00:13:49 Yeah, it's cute. So I brought it, yeah? So when the other day we did a story, you got brief. You got brief. that I brought you this hat, a random person messaged me saying like, ah, you should have went to Tiffany's and bought her something.
Starting point is 00:14:01 So if you know her, as much as I do, she gives zero Fs about jewelry and less even from Tiffany's. She prefers a hat. The cost me probably lots of less, but has a little doggie on the hat. She will be happier with that than a diamond from Tiffany's.
Starting point is 00:14:18 Yeah, you've got grief for not going to Tiffany's. And also, she will be like, why do you buy that for? And then she will give me grief. also for spending so much money on it. So that's why she goes the hat. I'm not big on jewelry. I didn't get my ears purse until I was about 25.
Starting point is 00:14:31 I've not got my necklace. I've got my ring on, but that's Norman and Olly in that ring, and that's my engagement ring, but that's me. But I take these off a lot when I get home. I don't wear them around the house a lot, because when you're washing your hands and stuff, the skin gets dry, when you're training. But yeah, you see, she prefers that hat with the puppy.
Starting point is 00:14:48 If you'd have come back with a hat or a Tiffany, as I would have preferred the hat. That's what you got to make more use out of it. Oh, I bought the Tiffany's for me. Jokes. Listener messages, let's do it. Okay. Do you want to read Suse?
Starting point is 00:15:02 Yeah. Hi, Jemma and Gorka. Your podcast on the 3rd of June was hilarious. Only on the 3rd of June? I love listening to you. Poor Gorka, look absolutely naked. I was, trust me. Your comment about thumbing in a soft...
Starting point is 00:15:17 Your comment about thumbing? Thumbing. Thumbing. Your comment about thumbing in a soft one had me in stitches what that means you know what it means you know what thumb in a softy means
Starting point is 00:15:32 you must have experienced it in your life when you've been too drunk to pipe so you have to thumb it in you must have so you have clearly you must have no I've never heard that expression anyway I look forward to your podcast each week
Starting point is 00:15:48 love Sue thank you Sue you've never heard that expression what would you say in Spain then I never have been drunk and have, first of all, I never been drunk and have that issue because I was drunk, probably I was going home on my own, yeah? And if I was too drunk, to do that, I don't think I got in a position to do that.
Starting point is 00:16:09 That makes sense? So I never have the thumb of softening. You can tell you're so not British. Yeah. I love it. Why? Because British men do, they try anyway. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:16:20 If I'm that drunk, I would just go to bed And I wake up in the morning and I'll try in the morning when it's like ready, you know what I'm going to? I don't know. Oh, thank you Sue. Hopefully you're laughing again at the thumbing in a soft day. Kerry said, I could only eat pasta if it has garlic mayonnaise on it. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:16:40 I would think of that. We'll be like, that's no pasta. That's disgusting. Do you remember during lockdown when I went through that phase of living on Pizza Hut? I went through a Pizza Hut and banana bed phase. I was fuming. Every, like, at least twice a week I'd order a pizza with garlic
Starting point is 00:16:55 mayo and it stung, it was awful. Do you know what I'm into now? And I'd never tried it before. I thought, no, but King Julian gave me to try. And Vito doesn't like this either because he doesn't think that should go on a pizza. But I love a pepperoni pizza,
Starting point is 00:17:13 which I've never been to pepperoni pizza before, but I'm not like from Dominion or things like that. Like pilgrims, you know, like proper pizza or like a root-is pizza. proper napoleon, yeah? Or like a New York pizza. I had it when I was in New York. So pepperoni pizza with hot honey sauce.
Starting point is 00:17:29 So it's honey with a bit of chili in it. So it makes a bit of spicy. But the mix between the spice with the honey sweet in the pepperoni, do you think it's not, but it is nice. Honey's nice on Hulumi. So next time, oh, you can't eat pepperoni. So next time don't try it. No.
Starting point is 00:17:47 I'll try it and tell you how it tastes. Yeah, I can't eat pepperoni. When I was in New York, we went to this pizza place. It's something, Mama's stew, and there's like a very famous pizza place. Ooh, they mix like to the slice, the pepperoni one with the hot honey. They do a honey one at Rudies, don't they? I'm sure, yeah. No, they put you the hot honey sauce.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Yeah, I'm sure they did. Remember the pizza place? We had it, yeah. No, the pizza place I took you to, in London. Yes. They had it there, yeah. Yeah. No, Vito would hate that, wouldn't he?
Starting point is 00:18:19 He would. We've also had some responses Do you know when you got upset last week About your stuff being moved in the kitchen No my stuff It just mean the kitchen things It was just the order of the pans Under the drawers
Starting point is 00:18:29 Well Sue agrees with you Thank you Sue Thank you Sue I agree with Gawker Pans should always be stacked neatly in the cupboard Also no one should mess with your belongings Moving them around when you're not there I love to see everything neat and tidy
Starting point is 00:18:44 So I have to agree with Gawker Me too I feel like Maybe it's a cultural thing It's not the same thing that happens with it. Remember that drama we're doing on the hat? It's just a common sense. It's not yours.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Just leave it there. My defence was that if you're, if someone's away for five weeks. Still not your house. Or move it. And then. Our house. It's our house. Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:06 You're talking about yourself? Talking about myself, yeah. I was thinking someone else. No, I'm talking about the way the pans were was in a way where I could easily grab them in the morning to make me as bacon, to make me as porridge, to make Tiago's. everything was where I needed it. It's more difficult.
Starting point is 00:19:22 For you, not for me. No, no, no, no, it's more difficult. I had that routine down to a tea. And less space. I kept that ship sailing perfectly. But then you come home and you were like, no. You keep it sailing, but that doesn't mean it's tidy. It doesn't need to be tidy.
Starting point is 00:19:35 It needs to be tidy. Everything's clean. A space, like a space. If you can see it, it needs to be tidy. A space. Monica's closet on friends. Say no more. Yes, but when you open and you have to look for clothes,
Starting point is 00:19:47 it's impossible to look for clothes. That's why when you go to dress yourself, then you come down and you look like you haven't looked at yourself in the mirror before you come out of the house. Because when you go to get your clothes, you don't know where anything else. You don't know where your tops are, your vests are, your jeans, your trousers, because everything is everywhere. So then it's very difficult. Imagine that you go to the shops to buy clothes, which you don't do because you don't like it. But imagine if you go to a shop, yeah, to buy, and everything is everywhere. You will be moaning about it.
Starting point is 00:20:15 That's why I don't go. Because you can not find it. when people moans about clothes in shops when it's the sales because everything is everywhere lose like a market once it's nice and tidy you can go oh
Starting point is 00:20:26 I need my plain tishers I go here and in my jeans I go there same thing with the wardrobe is also clear space for your heads What about pans? Same thing for the pans You're about a frying pan
Starting point is 00:20:37 and a sauce pan Yes when you have sauce pans in the right side on this shell and then you have the chopping boards on the left side why you have to go to have a now a chopping board
Starting point is 00:20:47 and their three pans another pan on top of the other no you have a long space to have everything tidy well this message carries on and it's laughable good you are so lucky to have such a perfect guy
Starting point is 00:20:58 Gemma I love watching you both and I so enjoy the horse with Benji every day it's wonderful to see them together best mates for sure so you're my best friend now perfect guy please
Starting point is 00:21:10 I'm not perfect you're telling me no one's perfect you're perfectly imperfect not perfect but I'll try to be organized and everything. It makes easier to look for everything. Horses, though, and Benji,
Starting point is 00:21:24 Benji and Joey. There's a little children's book in that, isn't there? They're obsessed with each other. I would buy Joey. They are so. Keep him where? And the field where it is? And you're going to feed him?
Starting point is 00:21:34 You're going to give him water? You're going to do his coat? You're going to do his hooves? I love to do that. I used to do it every time when I was in my farm's grandma. He's lost a hoof, actually. Joey, his horse shoe, he's got his own shoe off. He gets it.
Starting point is 00:21:46 off himself. My uncle used to, I know how to clean them and my uncle used to swap them and everything for him. I gave him a little bit of an apple this morning. And he gets so excited, bless him. Caroline says there's nothing worse than someone moving your stuff around and you can't find it. Absolutely not. A friend wants reorganized my iPad screen and it took me ages to put it back. What does you mean by that? The apps? Oh my God, just read the next one. Leave the next one. Someone with the username, Lies for the Week on YouTube says, The way Gorka looks at you is so beautiful.
Starting point is 00:22:23 He's just so horny. How is that beautiful? Also, I think Gorka is so correct about the pants. But their page is called Lies for the Week, so they're lying. About me and mean horny? About me mean. About both. Can't be that horny if you don't attempt to thumb in a softie.

Starting point is 00:24:41 It's about the hedgehog on your jacket, isn't it? Oh, no. I've rescued a little hedgehog. It actually bothers me more than you were wearing it than you used it for the headstock. Really? Yeah, because you have your own one. Why do you need to wear mine?
Starting point is 00:24:52 I just picked the one. that was nearest. Nice. I took a hedgehog to a local sanctuary because it was out in the day and unless it's a female, males won't be out in the day, they're nocturnal.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Females occasionally, if they're foraging for food their hoglets, but she was limping quite bad. She wasn't walking too well. So I think she was injured, well, she was injured. There's many of those ones around
Starting point is 00:25:12 where we live, because we have one, it's like, remember that one that was on the decking? Yeah. You have to put it in a shoebox? Yeah. They're really cute, though.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Sometimes they have fleas and ticks. Yeah. But this one, didn't she was lovely so that was my dilemma thing nothing else i don't think i had i've been away i don't have a dilemma i've got one the luggage no okay which one so the last three nights me her blesser has come in our room and ask for water she does it on purpose i'm sure she does she comes and stands at the side of my bed never yours side of my bed taps me mom hey can i have a drink can i go yeah and the other night she did it
Starting point is 00:25:52 and I was so like in a deep sleeve I was so flat out and I went go okay but you didn't I don't think you heard me because you didn't move so you were in that deep asleep because you woke up no because she was tapping me
Starting point is 00:26:05 physically tapping me so I got up I made her a drink and I kept my eye shook so so tired and then I got her back in bed I came in back into the bedroom laptop you were sat with your lap
Starting point is 00:26:19 laptop on. And I thought, if your intention was to watch the laptop at 2 in the morning, why couldn't you just go up with me here? Because my intention was to stay in a really nice sleep. Me too. And I was like, please, please no, blue light in the room. I was just like, I got into bed. I thought to myself, I needed my mask. Was my first night after New York, no? I was just like, please, no, no blue light, no laptop. So. And then he falls asleep with the laptop open so then I had to wake up again a few hours later and I had to come around unplug it and shut it because it was the green it was all yeah it was on well I was the first night I came after the first night after I came from New York so I was probably
Starting point is 00:27:05 jet lag and I didn't hit her then I heard you when it hit her heard her her yeah but then I heard you when you wake me up to give her the water bottle she was in my side so But then after that, you went with her to the room, no? Yeah, because no one asked it. And then I was away. That's why I put my laptop. Because for me, what happens sometimes when I wake up in the middle of the night, if someone puts the light on or I get awake, I cannot go back to sleep.
Starting point is 00:27:28 So then I have to put my serious to kind of like close my eyes and just have some like, you know, like a student voices and I fall asleep. That's what happens. Yeah, but you fall asleep with the laptop open. That's why, you know what happened with my laptop? When I was on tour, I called her one day and I said, I just woke up today and my laptop was broke, remember? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:27:46 So what happens is I went to bed and put the series, and I fell asleep watching the series. So probably in the middle of the night, I woke up and I knew the laptop was still open. So I shut the laptop, but I didn't realize. The charger cable was inside the, like on top of the keyboard. So when I snapped it, the whole screen cracked. And I didn't remember.
Starting point is 00:28:09 So, yeah. Well, there you don't be watching it in the night. I can't stand blue light in the bedroom. We have a red light. and the bedroom is red at night. It's like Amsterdam. You know there's a study now that says, you know how people we were saying,
Starting point is 00:28:21 oh, this study is about having read life before bed, helps you sleep and blah. There's a new study now saying they doesn't do anything. It's not just for sleep. It's just, it's the EMFs and stuff. Yeah, but you know how they used to say, it helps you to, like, kind of like, switching off and your, like,
Starting point is 00:28:38 your circadian clock and everything, your parasympathic system. So apparently there's a study now that says, having blue light is. light or red light, it won't change anything apparently. It changes me. If I watch telly at night without my blue light blockers, I'm wired.
Starting point is 00:28:52 If I watch it with my blue light glasses on, I start not enough. Another note, I don't know whether there is my wop glasses, the red light ones, so the blue light glasses. I don't know. I might be my work bag. I don't know. I don't know where they are.
Starting point is 00:29:06 Genuine, I've got my own. Don't look at me like that. I've got my own. I've got two pairs. I don't need no more. I don't know. Who do you agree with? me wearing his jolet to save a hedgehog
Starting point is 00:29:17 or gawker with the blue light at night You were wearing that jolette before you find out the headshot Well I know the guy you helped me He said how are you going to take it there And I had the jolet on and I said don't worry I said I'll take this off and put it in here So normally you have towels in the car for the dog Yeah but benjie was in the boots
Starting point is 00:29:34 I didn't want to open the boots I didn't want Benj near the hog Or the hog near Benji She was I don't want her to be scared And obviously didn't want him to get fleas Makes sense yeah So I thought it's better to have him on your coat and our dog.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Last night, Benji jumped on the bed, didn't he? And he was just, he just sits right between us. Like, he couldn't bless him, try and separate us more at night. And Gorker was lay there. And after about 10 minutes, he went, okay, this dog, come on, Benji, off. Off now, off. Benji just looks at him. And Gorker actually said to me, you have to move him because he doesn't listen to me.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Yeah, it is true. And also I think because I've been away so long. he lies always now on my side. So he thinks, dude, what are you doing here? Get out. This is my spot. He does. He looks.
Starting point is 00:30:21 This morning, I woke up with him at like 5 a.m. And he was literally putting his face over my face. And I have to go, Benji, stop. Oh, I love it in the morning. It's perfect. Too early. But let us know, O'Dable 7, 6103-989898 or lost in translation at bowermedia.com. Those were our dilemmas.
Starting point is 00:30:42 Let's now solve one of yours. So this week's dilemma comes in from Chloe. Do you want to read this, Gorse? I think it's better if you're ready to me too. It says, Hi, guys. I'd love your advice on how I should deal with the problem I'm having with my sister. Ooh, sister's dilemma.
Starting point is 00:31:03 We both had our firstborns at similar times, so we naturally hang out a lot. She's really competitive, though, with how well our kids are doing. They're both two, which I think is similar age to your Tio. That's true, he is. to. And at every stage, it's like she brags that her little girl has done stuff before my son.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Of course. She's different already skills. She will. She's a girl. Her daughter started talking first, was potty train first, and even did her first steps before him. And every time she keeps on bringing it up and then making me feel like a bad mum because my son hasn't done it yet. Tiago's not potty trained yet. Don't worry. My son has done some things before her daughter, but I will always try and encourage her instead. Should I have a chat with her about it or should I just lean into it and start bragging when he does something in his payback. Don't worry, Clow. When that girl's hormones kick in as a teenager,
Starting point is 00:31:52 she will have hell to pay and you'll be nice and chill with a little boy with just testosterone. How would I just say, Chloe? Just ignore your sister. Is she older than you or younger? Just ignore her. To be honest, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:32:03 It's just boy and girl. It's different, you know? Like we see, like, for example, with Mia, Mia was quicker doing many things. Tiago's slower. Or even, for example, our friends, like Neil and China or Alice in Janette, they have both girls.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Tiago is older than them too. Still not doing the same stuff. They started speaking earlier. And they were also the first child. Tiago's the second one and is a boy. He's like probably more strong, like jumping and things like that than them. My auntie's got two boys. Obviously my mom had two girls, me and my sister.
Starting point is 00:32:33 And I think she used, my auntie always says to me, you and Nina did things way before. Yeah. And I was like, but why? And she'd go, they were boys. They're lazy. Yeah. They're just boys.
Starting point is 00:32:44 But we did. I mean, comparing any kid to any kid is wrong because they all develop at their own pace and their own time and I naively, when I had Tiago, tried to parent the same as how we did with Mia. You can't, completely different, he's a little lad. But for example, Tiago walked quicker than Mia.
Starting point is 00:33:05 He walked quicker than her. He didn't talk quicker than her though, did he? And I was thinking, oh my God, can he not speak? And then within a month he couldn't shut him up. Yeah, I feel like, for example, I don't know if, I mean, I'm not a doctor or a specialist, or anything like that, but I don't know if I think girls, when it comes to, like, things of, like, communication, like,
Starting point is 00:33:22 they involve, like, brain and mentally, they develop quicker, and boys is more about, like, physicality, you know, like anything that is, like, running, jumping, walking, or, like, his coordination was better than me quicker. Yeah. Things like that. She used to sit, didn't she, reading her books? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Tiago's, like, throwing toys everywhere. Yeah, he's full on. But, no, you should. I wouldn't have a word with her. I'd just say whenever she tells you what her daughter's done, because it's your niece as well, isn't it? Yeah. And it's her nephew.
Starting point is 00:33:54 So she should be proud either way. You say, fantastic, that's amazing for her. I'm so glad. But there's not a competition anyway. No. Maybe they were competitive as sisters. I don't know. Of the sister was competitive with her again.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Were you ever competitive with your bro? No, I could care less about my brother. I wasn't competitive with my sister. Never have been. But Nina's seven years older than me. That's what I mean for my brother. But we never, we always just used to encourage. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Maybe not. I knew it was the best one anyway. No, I wasn't, no. No, but yeah, don't let her make you feel like that. You have to just kind of, you know, the bragging is, it is unfair. I think when people brag about the kids because it's different for everybody. I would go, sorry, I have something here for you. You want a medal and do that?
Starting point is 00:34:39 Yeah. Yeah, it's hard. And they give you these checkpoints as well, but by this age, your child should be doing this. Child should be doing that and you think, oh my gosh. But the reality is the boys and girls are very, very different. Second kids are different. Mia does a lot for Tiago.
Starting point is 00:34:55 So again, that's why he didn't speak as quick because he'd try and he'd point and say, Mum, can I have, and he'd be thinking of the word and Mira go, oh, your dog, here it is. Oh, you're cup, here it is. So she did a lot of speaking for him, which my mum said Nina did for me. So I was a late talker for that reason. But then once I started, you can't. You can't shut you up.
Starting point is 00:35:16 You can't shut us up. So no, I would just, yeah, stick to what you're doing, Chloe. Congratulate your sis on your nephew's achievements. Yeah, but now. On your niece's achievement, sorry. And yeah, keep going with your little lad. Let us know how he goes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:31 And Godspeed, because the toddlers with the boys are hell on earth. We're in the trenches with you, Chloe. Should we play a game? Yes. Our sponsor today is Whoop. And I honestly wish I had my weep when Mia was tiny and I was running on about three hours sleep wondering why I felt like absolute rubbish.
Starting point is 00:35:58 And I still feel like rabbi sometimes, but at least now we know why. Whoop tell us what our bodies are really doing. Right? And instead of going, I'm tired. I don't know why. Maybe it's the weather. It's like having a little coach, a little PT that actually stays on your arm. Actually, my recovery has been 25% actually,
Starting point is 00:36:15 so it's told me not to go into a massive workout. I need to rest. For me, it's about a balance. understanding when I can push in training versus when my body needs rest, because with dance, tour, the kids, with everything, you think you should always be going full speed. But you can't, that's the thing. And whoop helps you make smarter decisions with your training, instead of just guessing it. Like, should I have that extra coffee and get an early night? Listen to your whoop. It tracks your sleep, strain and recovery. All the things that busy
Starting point is 00:36:44 parents never have time to think about it. But probably we should. Exactly. It's like, understanding your own energy instead of just hoping for the best and wondering why you're knackered by Tuesday. If you want to stop guessing and start understanding what your body actually needs, go to whoop.com. So if you're new to the pod,
Starting point is 00:37:10 we need to introduce you to producer Henry. Say hi, Henry. Hi Henry. Hi Henry. Hi Henry. To anyone who's... Henrique. Enrique, yeah. To anyone who's here regularly, you'll know our producer Henry pipes up from time to time during games, anything we needed debating, anytime. me and Gorker are fisty coughs.
Starting point is 00:37:26 He breaks us up, he pulls us apart. Of facts that we don't know and we can argue about it. He Googles us very quick so we can find out. And he's involved in the game today. So if you hear Henrique, then you know why. Because it's Father's Day this weekend. We've been given a list of celebrity kids' names. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:41:43 It's doing the rounds apparently If you could add a zero Yeah To anything in your life Oof, what would it be? You know what? I just, I have the answer for that. Probably the natural answer or the quick answer will be to my bank account, yeah?
Starting point is 00:42:00 Yeah. But actually, no. I will add the zero to my end year. How long I'm going to live? So you want to live longer? Because it means I have more time with you and the kids. Oh, only if I live in the kids. Well, but at least be the kids.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Please, God. Please angels. Raphael, Gabriel, Michael, Chipp is I'll say. If someone says to me, I'm going to live like 100 years, I could live a thousand years. For example. Oh. Just like, you know what I mean? I would love to live long enough to see like the kids, I don't know, be successful and be happy.
Starting point is 00:42:28 It would be amazing. We will, we'll be grandparents. Can you imagine me as a nana and you as a granddad? We'd be an abuelo, wouldn't you? You'll see those videos of the old couple dancing, like ragged on. Would you be in a be an abuelo? Yeah, abuelo. Abuelo.
Starting point is 00:42:43 And I'd be nana. Abuela? Nana Jemma and abuelo goaka. Nice. I would add more noughts to I'd probably have more acres I'd make the house on acres and acres of land so we could get chickens and donkeys
Starting point is 00:42:58 and Highland cows and Benji running around with them off. Why would you want to buy a farm but you will not allow me to buy another dog or get another dog from Bleakhold? Because if we have a farm we can have them in the farm, big ones if we get a farm and I can have a horse and a big...
Starting point is 00:43:15 How you call it the barn? A big barn that I can have. have a gym and a sonna and everything. Marquez Ranch. Do you know what I mean? If I can have that. We're going away this weekend's house hunting. Let me finish.
Starting point is 00:43:26 We can have that. I'll let you have a working dog. You know, like those Australian shepherds. You'll let me. No, like. You'll allow me to have. No, I mean, you know what I mean. So if I buy you a ranch with a gym and a sauna,
Starting point is 00:43:37 I didn't ask you to buy me a ranch. You will let me have my dog. No, I say, you can have more than once and two. You can have like three dogs. I'd love that. Four dogs. Do you mean? You can have a little rescue dog area.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I know. Do you mean? I will do. One day I will have my own little... A rescue horse. There's some little mini cows at the minute here in park. Imagine every morning go in our horse to walk the dogs on our field. How amazing will be there.
Starting point is 00:44:02 I know. A bit brill. Yeah. The only thing in this weather is not the best one. There's no bad weather, just bad clothing. Why we don't go to a farm, buy a farm in Spain? But we are going away this weekend and it's our first solo trip. in seven years.
Starting point is 00:44:20 In seven years for more than one night. So he's excited. Together, because normally doesn't break. I'm going through that whole thing there's a reason why King Charles and Prince William don't fly together. And I'm horrendous with flying anyway. It's only two hours fly.
Starting point is 00:44:36 I know, but it's the first time, the longest time we've been away from the kids in seven years. Even though it's two nights. We go Saturday, we come back Monday. Not that you say that. You know how I don't mind flying everything, no? You know when I was.
Starting point is 00:44:48 to New York now is the first time that when I was about to land an hour before the flight, I'll go scared. And I go uncomfortable, sat on my chair, and I keep looking back and forward. Because he was three men on the plane, suspicious. One of them was very, like, hyperactive and very, like, standing up all the time. You know when it looks like hesitated. Yeah. And he would keep asking for, like, coffees and, like, then ask for Red Bull on the plane.
Starting point is 00:45:12 And then he was moving to one of the seats to the other guy and then to the other guy. They were not together, but they were friends. and he was very suspicious, and the way that he was acting back and forward, and on his phone, like, speaking on the phone on the plane, I was like, this is very odd. And it makes me uncomfortable. That's how I feel with every flight. I was like looking around, like, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:45:32 I look at every single person boarding the plane. Do you remember when I was pregnant and they asked me to move seats because they'd sat me near the emergency door? And they said, sorry, you're going to have to move. You can't open this door if you need to. I went, no, no. I said, we can't move seats. I've been given this seat for a reason.
Starting point is 00:45:48 I have to sit here and she was like, you legally can't, you're pregnant. I said, I will get this door open by hook or by crook if I need to. I said, if you put someone else sat here now, they might not be sound of mind. They might open it mid-flight. You can't change the seating arrangements. And in the end, she was like, Mom, I'm really sorry, but you cannot sit here. We have to move you. And I got up and I said to you, well, that's it now.
Starting point is 00:46:11 That's it. We're going to go down. They've messed with the seats. I actually, I was like, listen, and then I remember I get out of the airport. and I went through security and he was again on the security was jumping different cues
Starting point is 00:46:22 like the security so it was very very odd and I thought I'm going to New York which is already the city already in herself is just you know
Starting point is 00:46:29 appealing then high rocks for 10 days massive events 7000 people there then it was the film festival in Shebek and then it was
Starting point is 00:46:39 the New York in New York where Donald Trump was going to New York towards the game so I was thinking from all the things is everything at once
Starting point is 00:46:46 so I was like very a bit like that's why I love us all just home together safe yeah but anyway hopefully we'll be back next week if we survive the weekend away we're going to Spain you know
